Faulty Christmas

This past weekend, we hosted "Faulty Christmas" (my husband made up that name) Basically, everyone had to bring a "faulty" gift. The winner of the faultiest gift would win a cash prize.
It was also a big UFC night so everyone was watching the fight as well.
Gabby charming Joe.


Everyone watching the fight.


For whatever reason, whenever people come over to our house, Cameron thinks it's our guests' job to rub his back...and they ALWAYS oblige.


More fight-watching


Cameron conning our guests into reading him books...


After the fight, it was time for the gift unveiling. For whatever reason, I let the guys handle this and so they elected ONE person to open ALL of the gifts. Where's the fun in that?! Oh well, Mike did a great job of being excited by all of the lovely gifts!


Another rule was that if anyone in the crowd "wanted" the gift, it was no longer deemed "Faulty" therefore, the gift was then disqualified.

Wouldn't you know there was a girl there who was THRILLED over this Michael Phelps calendar?! I guess it wasn't faulty enough.


Night Crawlers?



Feminine Douche?




HD Night Vision Glasses?





Enema? (Someone took this)



Depends


This looks interesting...



a 4x4 anyone? Yes, someone took it. Not faulty.


A humping Chihuahua?




The onlookers...

There were a couple of gifts that I couldn't share on here...
Here is a pic of Vera admiring one of them. I made sure my camera wasn't too focused
on the gift :)


How about a child's DO-RAG? Cameron enjoyed it.


We had so much fun with all of the gifts. It ended up that no one "won." We couldn't decide which gift was the worst, so we declared everyone a winner.
After the gift exchange, the boys did a little bit of this...




Somehow, someway, Cameron lasted the ENTIRE night. We know that when we host parties like this, there is no way he is going to bed without a fight, so usually he just crashes on the floor somewhere. Not this night. Everyone started dispursing around 1:45 am and Cameron was awake to walk them all to the door. But as soon as our guests were gone, Cam was too. He slept in until about 10:00 the next morning, thank goodness.
It was a really fun party. I am sure my housekeepers had great fun with all of the interesting things they found strewn about on Monday.
I know I was chuckling when I stepped in a wet spot on my carpet only to later figure out some douche had leaked out of one of the gift bags. Fun stuff.
Can't wait for next year!
